The fund will initially be a pilot. We'll see whether there's any positive impact from that fund. If so, we are aiming to extend it for about three to five years regarding the £30,000. Once again, it will be subject to the Council's annual budget every year. In terms of your second question, the leader has personally approached groups to try and find different facilities.
I think it's different schools, Regent Hall, Hall E, Community Centre, etc., ahead of the Unit 5 coming online.
There is no contingency set as yet, but within the £10 million allocation, there is a degree of flexibility built within that. But until we get the final project cost, we don't really know what that contingency level is going to be.
Our intention is that the expanded arts development offer will be funded from the £360,000 budget that's already been allocated. So I think the indicative cost of this will be between about £30,000 to £70,000 depending on whether the potential additional role is full or part-time.
We are considering all alternative funding routes for this. We are looking, for example, from the Arts Council. We're trying to find out whether we can receive any funding from them. We've also recently engaged with Theatres Trust, also with regards to additional funding.
